Bailey-Bilt  All-Steel  Buildings 

R  HE  almost  universal  adoption  of  All-Steel  Buildings  by  so  many  mdus- 
tries  proves  their  worth  and  usefulness. 

Everywhere,  Bailey-Bilt  AlhSteel  Buildings  are  cutting  overhead,  low¬ 
ering  the  cost  of  production  and  making  fire  prevention  a  reality.  These 
AlhSteel  Buildings  are  manufactured  under  our  own  patents.  They  pre¬ 
sent  so  many  advantages  that  they  are  now  being  used  for  an  endless 
variety  of  purposes.  They  are  sturdy — Rust  Proof — Water  and  Snow 
Tight — Correctly  Lighted  and  Ventilated. 

STRENGTH 

All  Bailey-Bilt  Buildings  are  made  of  structural  steel  frame  and  copper 
bearing  interlocking  galvanised  sheets  and  are  designed  by  our  own  engi¬ 
neers  experienced  in  this  highly  specialised  construction. 

QUICKNESS 

The  quickness  with  which  we  design,  manufacture  and  erect  these 
buildings  is  a  very  important  factor  in  their  adoption  for  so  many  purposes. 

MAINTENANCE 

Bailey-Bilt  Buildings  require  little  or  no  attention,  being  made  of  cop¬ 
per  bearing  galvanised  interlocking  sheets  which  is  proof  against  corrosion. 


ENDURANCE 

Bailey-Bilt  Buildings  with  ordinary  care  will  last  a  lifetime. 

SIZES 

Standard  sises  range  in  width  from  5  feet  to  100  feet  in  clear  spans 
and  lengths  from  5  feet  in  multiples  of  2  feet  6  inches. 

The  following  pages  illustrate  the  many  uses  of  Bailey-Bilt  All-Steel 
Buildings  and  their  surprisingly  excellent  appearance.

THE  PLANT  OF  EDWARD  J.  BAILEY  &  SON,  manufacturers  of  all-steel  portable  Buildings 
and  Garages,  is  one  of  the  largest  in  the  East,  established  1899. 


Bailey'Bilt  Buildings  are  manufactured  under  our 
own  patents  and  solve  the  problem  of  the  extremely 
high  cost  of  labor,  together  with  the  much-needed  build¬ 
ings  for  hundreds  of  purposes. 

Our  buildings  are  more  than  temporary  structures, 
being  attractively  designed  and  substantially  built. 
Heavy-gauge  inter-locking  galvanised  metal  and  ample 
truss  work  assure  rigidity  and  long  life,  doors  and  win¬ 
dows  are  well  set  and  balanced,  and  ventilation  has 
been  kept  in  mind. 


The  above  2Tton  press  gives  an  idea  of  the  labor' 
saving  machinery  with  which  the  plant  is  equipped. 


[This  catalog  is  issued  to  give  a  general  idea  of  the  design, 
construction  and  many  uses  of  Bailey'Bilt  Buildings.

Industrial  Buildings 

AILET'BILT  Standard  Industrial  Buildings  are  well-constructed  and 
recognized  for  their  strength,  quality  and  long  service.  The  indus- 
trial  building  is  only  a  shelter  for  men,  materials  and  machinery,  and 
should  cost  as  little  as  possible,  and  be  adequate,  because  the  present  indus¬ 
trial  era  is  one  of  extremely  rapid  change  and  the  building  that  cannot  be 
added  to,  moved  and  re-erected  or  modified,  may  be  obsolete  in  a  few 
years. 

The  Bailey  Silt  Standard  Steel  Building  for  the  industry,  from  the 
garage  to  the  large  factory  building  of  one-story  construction,  can  be 
added  to  at  any  time  desired.  The  following  pages  illustrate  a  few  of  the 
many  industrial  buildings  recently  erected.
